By Naji Tobias
The Sun
PAHOKEE A 40-year-old
.woman was- reported miss-
ing last week, according to the
sheriff's office.
Authorities from the Palm
Beach County Sheriff's Office
(PBSO) say that they do not
know where Ocie Mae Saulber-
ry is located at this time. ,
Law enforcement officials

and family members are hop-
ing someone out there can help
them find the missing mother.
On Sunday, Mar. 8, the
mother of four children was re-
portedly traveling east from Pa-
hokee to Bingo Magic in West
Palm Beach.
The bingo facility is located
on 865 S. Congress Avenue.
It was revealed by the PBSO
that the woman, of 849 Padgett
Circle in Pahokee, was seen
driving to the location in a white
1992 Buick four-door sedan.
The tag plate number on the
Buick, according to investiga-
tors, is 1048NR.
The woman reportedly
made the trek to West Palm

Beach at about 5 p.m. on that
Sunday afternoon.
It's not known at this time
whether or not she made it to
the destination, as her family
has reportedly been unable to
contact her since that fateful
time.
According to Larry Wright,
less than a week ago, a candle-
light vigil, known as the 'Can-
dlelight Walk of Hope' was held
at Pahokee's Padgett Circle.
A host of family members
and friends at the candlelight
ceremony were hoping that the
woman would be found.

as the best defensive back of the
tournament.
Though Noel didn't catch any
interceptions, he did not give up
any opposing touchdown pass-
es and broke up a lot of plays
throughout the competition.
"It don't really matter to me if
I got stars or not," Noel said, not-
ing that he wasn't rated by either
Scout.com or Rivals.com prior to
the tournament.
"There were four and five-star
players out there that were get-
ting exposed out there."

The Pahokee junior, who's
received college offers from Ten-
nessee and Florida International
University, is now getting serious
looks from Georgia, in large part
due to his play over the week-
end.
"I know the best get caught
on sometimes, but I competed
to the fullest," Noel said.
"I just wanted to put myself
out there and let people know
how good I am."

Boys finished third
in Moore Haven's
open meet last
week; girls netted
just six points

By Naji Tobias
INI Florida
SOUTH LAKE REGION -
The numbers, along with the
depth, have decreased this
year. For Glades Day's track
program, it certainly rings
true. Though the Gators lost
the likes of Earnest Jackson,
Jarrett Swaby, Gerald Lizak
and Tony Walker to gradua-
tion, there's quite a bit to look
forward to this season.
Brian Seider, the Glades
Day boys coach, likes to keep
things on a positive note, re-
gardless of what happens.
He noted that though
there are just 13 boys in com-
petition this season Dean-
dre Jackson, who's currently
playing baseball, may join the
team later on the team is do-
ing their best with what they
have.
"The guys are working
hard, they're getting better
every meet," the second-year
boys coach said. "Our num-
bers are definitely down, but
we're still doing pretty good."
In last week's meet at
Moore Haven, some of
Seider'9 boys stood out from
the pack. Will Zipperer, a
freshman, bested the field
with relative ease in the 800
meter race, as it was realized
that he was going to win the
event by the time he circled
the Terrier Field track the first
time. When running in the
800 event, you have to com-
plete the distance of the track
twice to finish,
Joshua Thornton, who
took home fourth place in
the 400 meter race during last
year's Class 1A state cham-
pionship meet, looks to be-
come a state medalist again
as a sophomore.
The 400 may be Thorn-
ton's best event, but he was
denied a win last week as
Moore Haven' speedster
Xavier Fagan ed-ged him for
the victory. Though Thornton,
came in second place in the
400, Seider remains steadfast
in his ability to stand out later
on in the season.
"Last year, Joshua took a
foothold in the 400," Seider
said of Thornton. "This year, I
think he'll be right there with
the best of them again."
Last season, Glades Day re-
peated as district champions,
*with 17 athletes advancing to
the Class IA regional meet,
.including Thornton (400), the
4 x 100 relay team (Anthony
Norton, Jarrett Swaby, Tony
Walker and Earnest Jackson)
and Lizak, to name just a few.
The 4 x 100 team finished
seventh at last year's Class 1A
state championships, earning
the foursome, who have all
graduated, a state medal.
The Glades Day faithful
should not be surprised if at
least three of this year's 13
boys namely, Ryan Soriano
(hurdles), Thornton and Zip-
perer capture a state medal
on May 1. As for Glades Day's
chances of capturing a third
consecutive district title:
"I think we'll be com-
petitive in district, along with
King's Academy and Benja-
min," Seider said. "King's has
a lot of depth and they have a
pretty good team."
On the girls end, all of their
runners, coached by Angie
Lohmann, are young.
There are just 12 girls who
are competing this season,
with just four of them as
freshmen. The other eight are
either seventh or eighth grad-
ers. In short, that bodes well
for the future of Glades Day's
girls track team.
"I think within two years,
we'll have great athletes
here," Lohmann said of her
girls.
On that note, it's quite un-
derstandable should nobody
stand out this season.
The Glades Day girls team,
as a whole, finished with just
six points at Moore Haven's
meet last week. But given
the fact that no one is expe-
rienced enough yet, it will be
exciting to see how much
they blossom over the years.

Earth Moving Effort Improving Everglades

Field data prompts
Storm water
Treatment Area
renovation

West Palm Beach, Fla. In
an ongoing effort to improve Ev-
erglades water quality, the South
FloridaWater Management District
(SFWMD) is renovating Storm-
water Treatment Area 5 (STA-5)
ih Hendry County to enhance its
Water-cleansing capabilities. The
renovation will smooth contours
on the wetland bottom, reducing
areas where water depths have
prevented wetland plants vi-
tal to STA performance from
growing in abundance.
"Storm water Treatment Areas
have proven to be our best tool
for cleaning Everglades-bound
water, yet we continually find
ways to make them better," said
SFWMD Governing Board Chair
Eric Buermann. "With renova-
tions in STA-5, we will learn even

more about optimizing treatment
performance, benefiting not only
America's Everglades but all res-
toration activities."
Storm water Treatment Areas
are designed so that water flows
slowly and uniformly through
wetlands abundant with phos-
phorus-hungry vegetation. A
closer look at field data collected
in STA-5, including detailed con-
tour maps of the wetland bottom,
revealed an area in the northwest
section that was much deeper
than the rest of the STA. This phe-
nomenon caused some water to
bypass the shallow, more heavily
vegetated sections of the STA and
therefore receive less treatment.
The dry weather of early 2009
presented an opportunity to re-
fine the bottom contours by mov-
ing soil from nearby higher areas
to the deeper areas. Filling these
sections of STA-5 will allow more
vegetation to take root, enhanc-
ing the treatment characteristics
of the STA.
District crews are handling

the renovation at substantial cost
savings compared to contracting
the work. In 32 days, the crews
moved nearly 170,000 cubic
yards, or 8,500 truckloads, of soil
in STA-5.
Since it began operation in
1999, the 8,000-acre STA-5 wet-
land has a multi-year record of
removing nearly 60 percent of
in-flowing total phosphorus. The
District team in charge of im-
proving Everglades water quality
expects STA-5 can now achieve
closer to an 80-percent removal
rate, which is on par with other
STAs.
Storm water Treatment Areas
are the water-cleansing workhors-
es of Everglades restoration, utiliz-
ing plants to reduce phosphorus
levels in water flowing into the
remnant Everglades. Since 1994,
six STAs with a combined area
of more than 52,000 acres have
retained more than 1,000 met-
ric tons of total phosphorus that
would have otherwise entered
into the Everglades. Overall, Flor-

ida has invested more than $1.8
billion to improve water quality
in the Everglades and has made
significant and well-documented
progress.
The District will continue col-
lecting data from STA-5 and other
treatment wetlands to advance
the science and utilize the lessons
learned to better restore and re-
vive the Everglades.

By Pastor John Hicks
First United Methodist Church
Many of us come to church ex-
pecting to have what we already
know and believe confirmed and
validated. We like talking- with
people we've known for a hun-
dred years. We enjoy the familiar-
ity of this sanctuary that holds so
many memories for us. We love
to sing those hymns and songs
we've been singing since child-
hood, and we wish the preacher
wouldn't constantly try to make
us sing new stuff.
There is so much that threat-
ens us in our weekday existence.
The world is changing so fast we
can't possibly keep up with it. On
Sunday morning, in the church,

we want to encounter a solid rock
to hold on to. And there are times
when God meets our need to be
comforted and strengthened. But
there are also times when God
knows that our greater need is
to have our thinking challenged,
our faith examined, our lifestyle
*called into question. A time when
we are called to leave our com-
fort zone, a time when we are
called to stand in the gap. (Ezekiel
22:30)
If we're honest about it, we
have to admit that just about the
..only place where we feel com-
fortable making bold statements
about our religion and our alle-
giance to God is in our church. In
our hymns we sing, "All to Jesus I
surrender All tp Him I freely give."

In our confession of faith, we say,
"I believe that Jesus is the Christ,
the Son of the Living God, and I
accept him as Lord of my life."
And when we pray the Lord's
Prayer, we pray, "Thy kingdom
come, Thy will'be done, on earth
as it is in heaven."
We say all of these things, and
that's wonderful. But what do
with we do with them when we
leave the security of our places of
worship?
There are some things in life
that are best experienced first
hand. We can't really learn how
to do a particular dance just by
hearing a lecture on modern
dance. We've got to get on the
dance floor and feel the beat of
the music. If I say, "It looked like

the runner was going to be out at
the plate, but he used a hook slide
and slid around the tag," and you
don't know anything about base-
ball, what do my words mean?
The Christian faith' is sort of
like that. We can talk about it, but
unless we really put it into prac-
tice, what we have is lacking. Un-
less people actually experience
our faith in action, what do our
words mean?
As a preacher, my task is not
just to be interesting or informa-
tive or amusing or entertaining.
I hope that my sermons are all
these things, but I'm realistic
enough and aware of my own
limitations enough to know that's
not going to happen all the time.
But none of these things, as desir-

able as they may be, amount to
anything unless I can somehow
convince people of the need to
ACT, to allow the Spirit of God to
transform them. Hearers must at
last become doers. The faith we
proclaim with our Sunday morn-
ing affirmations has to be evident
in our Monday morning lives.
On Saturday, March 21, we
have one such opportunity to do
this. I invite you to join me and
others in a Unity March Against
Violence. We will gather at 10
a.m. across from the old sub
station at the corner of El Paso
and Francisco in Clewiston. The
plans are to march through sev-
eral troubled neighborhoods and
conclude with a rally at the Elk's
park on Francisco. Those who

can't march are invited to come
to the Elks park as a show of sup-
port. We love our community and
want to let certain elements know
that we are not going to just sit by
and let them corrupt our youth.
Join us!
Some of you, like me, might
find that a unity march might not
be in your comfort zone. I have re-
alized that sometimes I am called
to go outside of my comfort zone
for the sake of Kingdom work. As
for me and my household, we will
do what we can do to stand up
to this violence epidemic. Even if
that involves marching through a
troubled neighborhood:

What has been will be; what has been done will be done again

By Jackie Miller,
Evangelist
First Christian Church
In Ecclesiastes 1:9 NIV it says
"What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done
again; there is nothing new under
the sun."
In a recent article I read, it
stated that modern-day liberals
- or "progressives", labor under
an awkward misconception;
namely, that there is anything
remotely "progressive" about
the fundamental canons of their
blind, secular-humanist faith. In
fact, today's liberalism is largely a
sanitized retread of an antiquated
mythology one that significantly

predates the only true progressive
movement: Biblical Christianity.
Baal worship taught child sac-
rifice, sexual immorality (both
heterosexual and homosexual)
and pantheism (reverence of cre-
ation over the Creator). Ritualistic
Baal worship, in sum, 'looked a
little like this: Adults would gather
around the altar of Baal. Infants
would then be burned alive as
a sacrificial offering to the diety.'
Amid horrific screams and the
stench of" charred human flesh,
congregants men and women
alike, would engage in bisexual
orgies. The ritual of CONVE-
NIENCE was intended to produce
economic prosperity by prompt-
ing Baal to bring rain for the fertil-

ity of "mother earth." The natural
consequences of such behavior
- pregnancy and childbirth and
the associated financial burdens
of "unplanned parenthood" were
easily offset. One could either
choose to engage in homosexual
conduct or with child sacrifice
on demand could take part in
another fertility ceremony to ter-
minate the unwanted child.
Modern liberalist. deviates
little from its ancient predessor!
While its macabre rituals have
been sanitized by. flowery and
euphemistic terms of art, its core
tenets and practices remain eerily
similar. The worship of "fertility"
has been replaced with worship
of "reproductive freedom" and

. "choice." Child sacrifice via burnt
offering has been updated, even
so slightly, to become child sac-
rifice by way of abortion. The
ritualistic promotion, practice and
celebration of both heterosexual
and homosexual immorality and
promiscuity have been carefully
whitewashed, yet wholeheartedly
embraced by the cults of radical
feminism, militant "gay rights"

and "comprehensive sex educa-
tion." And, the pantheistic wor-
ship of "mother earth" has been
substituted in name only, for
radical environmentalism.
In the White House today and
in the 111th Congress we have
those who are rife with unfettered'
pro-abortion, freedom-chilling,
pro-homosexual and power-grab-
bing environmentalist objectives.

The same kind of "hope, action
and change," I suppose, that was
swallowed by the Baalist Canaan-
ites of old. So today's liberalism is
really just a very old book with a
shinny new cover. A philosophy
rooted in ancient pagan tradi-
tions of which there is naught to
be proud. There's "nothing hew
under the sun," indeed!

Serving the communities south of Lake Okeechobee

Hlendry Regional hosts lunch and learn

By Glenda Wilson
March is National Colorectal
Cancer Awareness Month and
Hendry Regional Medical Center
is educating the community about
colorectal cancer through free
'lunch 'and learn' seminars. Dr.
Leonard Carroll and Dr. Darayes
Mobed, both general surgeons at
Hendry Regional, will be hosting
these lunch and learn sessions
and discussing ways to prevent,
diagnose, and treat colorectal
cancer.
Dr. Carroll will speak during
lunch at the hospital conference
foom in Clewiston on Wednes-
day, March 25 from 12:15 p.m.
to 1:15 p.m. (a light lunch will be
provided).
Dr. Darayes Mobed will speak
during lunch at the Convenient
Care Center conference room in
LaBelle on Thursday, March 26
from 12:15 p.m. to 1:15 p.m. (a
light lunch will be provided).
It takes guts to face the facts
about colorectal cancer and do
something about it. Hendry Re-
g. ional Medical Center wants you
to know the facts:
.* -Colorectal cancer is the

second leading cause of cancer
deaths in the United States only
lung cancer is more deadly, affect-
ing about 174,000 people each
year and taking 160,000 lives. This
year alone, about 149,000 Ameri-
cans will be diagnosed with col-
orectal cancer, and about 55,000
will die from it. By comparison,
breast cancer will affect 213,000
women this year and claim about
41,000 lives. During that same
time, roughly 234,000 men will be
diagnosed with prostate cancer,
and 27,000 will die from it.
*Even though colon cancer
and rectal cancer are often re-
ferred to together (as colorectal
cancer), they describe cancers of
two different areas. Rectal cancer
occurs when a tumor grows in
the bottom 6 inches of the bowel.
If a tumor grows in any area of the
bowel that's above the rectum, it
is called colon cancer.
Colorectal cancer affects men
and women in equal numbers. It
is not a '"man's disease" which
is how some people think.'
*Colorectal cancer doesn't
discriminate a person of any
race can get this disease. How-

-ever, African-American men and
women are more likely to de-
velop colorectal cancer than any
other racial group, and they are
also more likely to die from it.
*Although it is true that nine
out of ten cases of colorectal can-
cer are diagnosed in people older
than 50, the average age for diag-
nosis is only 62. This is why doc-
tors recommend that everyone
older than 50 should have routine
screening exams for colorectal
cancer.
*Genes can play a part in
who develops colorectal cancer.
As with many other diseases,
your risk goes up if a close fam-
ily member has had it. However,
the majority of people who get
colorectal cancer have no family
history at all.
*The majority of people who
develop colorectal cancer have
no history of inflammatory bowel
disease or other bowel condi-
tions. Even if a person has never
had digestive problems of any
kind, he or she is still at risk for
colorectal cancer. However, a
change of bowel habits may be
an early symptom.

*Colorectal cancer can grow
for a long time without causing
any symptoms or in some
cases, it may cause vague or low-
level symptoms that a person
might ignore. Often, by the time it
causes noticeable symptoms, the
cancer has become much harder
to treat.
Colorectal cancer is actu-
ally one of the most preventable
cancers. Tumors in the colon or
rectum begin as polyps (benign
growths), and it is possible to de-
tect and remove them before they
become cancerous. This is done
with a colonoscopy, a test that
uses a scope to examine the en-
tire colon and rectum. If the doc-
tor finds any polyps, he or she can
remove them during the exam.
*When colorectal cancer is
found early meaning that the
cancer is confined to one location
within the colon or rectum it is
very treatable and the vast major-
ity of people survive. It becomes
much more difficult to treat when
it's discovered later and after the
cancer has spread to other parts
of the body.

matchup against Tampa-Plant,
last year's national champion,

The touchdown grab came
after Johnson's 30-yard grab from

ning one-point conversion from

The final score was 13-12, in
favor of Team Palm Beach.
"Tampa-Plant almost took that

game away from us," Noel said.
"We stuck together and kept
our heads straight, though," he
continued.
"All we did was just think about
the next play."
According to Rothman, the Ju-
piter Christian quarterback, Team
Palm Beach will likely get to play
in another seven-on-seven tour-
nament this summer.
If everything goes as planned,
Team Palm Beach will travel to
Las Vegas on the Fourth of July
weekend.

istry played a role in their suc-

"We were really tight with

Interestingly, it seems as if the
Glades area is picked to have the
port, Florida Crystals stands to be
possibly the biggest beneficiary
of it, with the proposed site being
located near the Okeelanta mill
site.
But, as locals know by now,
there is much competition for that
coveted development, including
Glades, Hendry and Martin coun-
ties.
Environmentalist groups, who
came out in full force during this
past Sept. 9 county commission
meeting, spoke against the pos-
sibility of having the port near the
Okeelanta site, citing that, among
other things, it could interfere
with plans of a flow-way.
The South Florida Water Man-

cussed plans of erecting that flow-

way, which would allow water to
travel from Lake Okeechobee to
the north all the way down south
to the Everglades.
p Nevertheless, despite these
possible obstacles, McArthur is
doing what he can to get the port
to the Glades.
"Right now, everyone is push-
ing their own interests for their
own location," McArthur said.
"This meeting is an effort to
bring everyone together to ensure
that the inland port will come to
the Lake Region."
When asked when the de-
cision would be made on the
port or who will be making that
choice, McArthur simply had this
to say:
"None of us know right now
where we stand," McArthur said.
As for who the favorite is right
now to get the port:
"I can't really tell you right now,
but I don't think Martin County is
the favorite to get it."

"We need to embrace our cul-
ture," she continued.
"It's important that we, as
African-Ameridans, celebrate our

Well over 500 people are ex-
pected to appear at the Lake
Shore Park, the host 'site of the
afternoon festivities, which begin'
at noon.
A lost of entertainment op-
tions are slated to be on display,
including a fashion show, a kids'"
art clinic and a Gospel Hour,
among others.
The Gospel Hour will likely
feature choir groups such as the
Inspirational Church of God Youth
Choir and Belle Glade's Commu-.
nity Choir, to name just two.
Cultural foods, as well as a va-
riety of games for the youth, will
also be available at the festival.
There will also be a Blood Mo-
bile throughout the afternoon,
with the van also appearing in the
parade.
Those who attend will have an
opportunity to donate blood and
learn more about their health in

Glades to be picked as the inland
port location, however, is that
port officials will need to know
what outcome of the U.S. Sugar
land acquisition deal will be.
The SFWMD board of direc-
tors recently voted to buy 180,000
of the U.S. Sugar land and assets,,
which are worth approximately
$1.34 billion.
Also, a private sector interest
must be noticeable enough for
the Port to proceed further with
the possibility of the inland port
to come to the Lake Okeechobee
region.
But for right now, the Port is
looking forward to tomorrow
morning's meeting, which will be
held from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at

"Residents can expect to find

This is incorrect.
